‘This is someone's livelihood': Ontario woman mistakenly charged $7K for pizza
A Toronto woman is sharing her 'distressing' experience after being mistakenly charged more than $7,000 for a Domino's Pizza order, leading to a prolonged dispute with both Domino's and her bank. On March 30, the woman named Naya placed a $72.53 order with Domino's Pizza but was later charged $7,253. She noticed the charge after receiving an email from Scotiabank, saying her credit card was over her limit. 'I don't understand at all how this could have been my mistake,' Naya said in her TikTok video explaining the incident. After seeing the false charge, she contacted Domino's customer service, but felt dismissed. 'They couldn't care less,' she said. After escalating the issue to Domino's corporate offices, she said she received no apology or compensation. Story continues below advertisement Naya says she filed a dispute with Scotiabank on April 1, attaching screenshots, receipts, and full documentation. But on May 1, she learned the bank hadn't even started the investigation. 'How is that OK?' she said. 'No one reached out to let me know more documents were needed … and I had already sent everything in.'

Naya said she kept checking back every few days, hoping the issue would be resolved — but she feels no real action was taken until she went public with her story. 'I am hoping to give Scotiabank a few more days before proceeding,' she told Global News a few days after posting the video 'This was a time-sensitive issue.' @nayasakr_ Replying to @Vitalitydynamics clarification and receipts!! also forgot to mention that my credit limit on this card is $1k and they charged $7.2k so i have no idea how it even went through ♬ 5 MINUTE SOUND – 🦇𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐆𝐔𝐘™ While waiting, she says she also got a call from a Domino's manager where she ordered the pizza. At first, she thought he was calling to apologize or resolve the issue, but said the tone of the conversation 'was not apologetic at all.' In a follow-up TikTok video posted on May 19, Naya shared her frustration and the lack of support she received. Story continues below advertisement 'I just needed somebody to give me guidance,' she said. 'This is a very distressing situation.' Domino's Canada responded to Naya's incident by stating that its stores are independently owned and operated franchises. The company advised customers in situations like Naya's to contact the franchisee directly. The franchisee where Naya ordered the pizza confirmed to Global News that they have been in contact with her since the incident and are working to find out how she was overcharged. Ken Harrison, Domino's chief commercial officer, told Global News the franchisee had attempted to contact Naya shortly after the incident, but was informed that she had already initiated a chargeback process with her bank. Scotiabank confirmed the issue in a statement to Global News, saying, 'We worked with the client, and the disputed transaction has been reversed.' In an update video, Naya expressed gratitude for the support she received from the online community. 'Thanks so much to everybody in the comments who was helping and supporting,' she said. 'I know that they wouldn't have looked into it if it weren't for all the support on my video.' She hopes financial transactions will be monitored better in the future, saying that 'This is someone's livelihood. What if it happened to someone else who can't pay off the $7,000?'

I Can't Get Over This Striking New Photo of King Charles Standing Alone
Last month, I stumbled upon a fascinating photo of King Charles standing in the rain as he departed the Sandringham estate. The 76-year-old monarch's photo immediately took me back to a similar pic of his son, Prince William, who shared a snap of himself smiling in the rain. Now, just a few weeks later, photographers have captured yet another striking portrait of the monarch. On Monday, King Charles paid a visit to JCB World Headquarters in Rocester, Staffordshire to mark the 80th anniversary of the construction equipment company. During his appearance, he chatted with employees to learn about their work, and as he explored the factory floor, he was photographed standing alone and looking up. Arthur Edwards -The king, who donned a gray suit and polka-dot tie for the occasion, maintains a confident posture in the photo, keeping his hands behind his back. He also appears to be deep in thought as he looks off into the distance, and the blurred background draws even more attention to the royal, who's in perfect focus. The royal family shared footage of the king receiving a warm welcome as he arrived at JCB Factory. The Instagram caption reads, "The King visits @jcbmachines World Headquarters in Rocester as they celebrate 80 years! Founded in 1945, JCB remains a family business, employing 7,500 people across the UK. The King toured the factory floor, meeting apprentices, long-serving employees, and their families." The caption continues, "His Majesty also met Ken Harrison, aged 100, the last known survivor of the original backhoe production team from 1953. In the Innovation Centre, The King explored JCB's innovative hydrogen-powered machine, developed by a team of 150." In the comments, one fan responded, "It's good to see King Charles looking so well. God bless you, Your Majesty." Another wrote, "Absolutely incredible to see The King connecting with such a vital piece of British manufacturing history! Meeting Ken Harrison, a 100-year-old legend, is a moment I'm sure everyone there will cherish. What a testament to JCB's enduring legacy and innovation." I couldn't agree more.
